Since Perl people are generally also beer people a pub with a wide selection of beer would be a good idea.

So our suggestion is to meet up at "The Bishop Arms" located on Sankt Eriksgatan 115. It's a bit off-center but still quite near both Sankt Eriksplan and Odenplan. The chances of fitting lots of people there are a bit bigger than at a more central location.

The number of beers on tap is usually around 20 to 25 and on bottle between 70 an 100. They also have a wide selection of whisky.

Since there is construction work being done in the area of the venue the entry from "Eastmanvägen" is closed and the entry is from the park. There are signs on Dalagatan where it says "Studiefrämjandet" that will direct you correctly.

We haven't arranged any official pre-workshop meetup on fridy evening but our suggestion is that those who are interested meet up at Tennstopet which is a classical pub and resturant in the heart of Vasastan and almost next to the venue. They have a really nice bar menu that is moderatly priced.

The address to the pub is Dalagatan 50, closest subway station is Odenplan.

It is somewhat in between the subway stops Odenplan and St Eriksplan if you travel underground, and closest to the stop St Eriksplan of bus 4 if you travel at ground level in one of Stockholm's methanol driven busses.

A number of people have raised the question on how to pay for the workshop.

Payment will be possible via the web using PayPal or directly at the workshop.

We are currently in the a registration phase for Stockholm.pm at the Swedish tax agency that must be in place before we can open up online payment. Once online payment is open we'll post information here about it.

People that are listed as committed are either organizers and/or speakers (who are exempted from the fee).

Jonathan Worthington is one of the lead developers of the Parrot Virtual Machine and the Perl6 compiler Raduko that targets Parrot. He will be giving two presentations at the workshop this year, namely:
